Best Answer

There were several documented cases where settlers intentionally spread Smallpox among the Indians by giving them clothing, blankets, etc. infected with the disease. When Indians were given a wagon load of blankets, they of course returned them to the tribe (for all to use), and some of those would be traded with other tribes.
